So lightning "receiver privacy" is better, in this respect, than monero.
What about the IP address of the receiver? Isn't that gossiped around?
Two darknet markets that support lightning
Are there people who sell weed on Bisq2 or Robosats?

No. The recipient's node is not exposed to the network unless you specifically configure your node to route payments, and even then, you can use tor to hide your IP.

I haven't seen any.

Mhh ok, I guess you can avoid that by running your node only on Tor.
But still: All arguments about receiver privacy on lightning seem to ignore that it's still much easier to achieve privacy on monero since it is private by default. For example, with monero, you don't need to run a Lightning node to receive payments.
